JJ’s Pumpkin Spice Apple Protein Muffins

/

I've been obsessed with my Blueberry Explosion Protein Muffins for years. I make them every Sunday and have two every day as a pre- or post-workout treat. This week catastrophe happened. I ran out of blueberries and was too lazy to go to the store. But I did have apples so I figured, why not?! The result was a delicious reinvention of my favorite recipe perfect for the cold, wet weather in SF this week. I call them JJ’s Basic B*tch Pumpkin Spice Apple Protein Muffins. Give them a shot and I hope you enjoy!

What to do

  1. Mush up 4 medium (ripe are best) bananas with a fork.

  2. Mix in 1 cup of egg whites (whites work better than eggs), 1/3 cup coconut flour, 2 tbs Trader Joe’s pumpkin pie spice (or if you can’t find any use 1.5 tbs Cinnamon and 0.5 tbs Nutmeg) , 6 scoops protein powder (I like BioChem Vanilla), 1 finely chopped apple (it’s ok to leave the skin on) and (optional) 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.

  3. Spoon into muffin tin (I use the muffin papers because ain’t nobody got time for scrubbing pans).

  4. Cook for 28-30 minutes at 375.

  5. Om nom nom.
